We are using Pormetheus kongplugin to collect some metrics, kong (2.8). Among those metrics, http\_status and upstream\_target\_health.  
It is specified that this metric (kong\_http\_status) uses a counter, that counter increases each time a route is hit, the route point to a loadbalancer that forward traffic to two or more servers, http\_status gives the totoal request per route. Is there a way to capture the number of request but per target same as upstream\_target\_health?
